Chapter 153: Chapter 152: Professional

Qi Yue didn’t really care, as long as she wasn’t forced into an arranged date, she was fine with anything.

Upon learning that today’s gathering was to arrange a date for Qi Zhen and didn’t involve her, Qi Yue relaxed quite a bit, deciding to treat it as just a meal and wait until it was over.

During the conversation, footsteps sounded from the door; President Chen and his family had arrived.

Leading the group was a middle-aged man who looked calm and efficient, with his wife beside him, dressed in a cheongsam and obviously well-maintained.

Following behind the couple was a young man in a light blue casual suit, quite tall, and indeed as handsome as Yu Shuhua had described.

“Ah! Old Qi, how long has it been since we last saw each other!”

“More than ten years, I guess!”

President Chen and Qi Wanli immediately embraced each other warmly upon meeting.

Lady Chen’s gaze instantly fell on the dazzling Qi Zhen, “Is this Zhenzhen? She’s grown up so much! I almost didn’t recognize her! She has turned into a beautiful young lady!”

Yu Shuhua also smiled and said, “Your son, Chen Jing, is really a talent!”

Chen Jing’s gaze was also clearly attracted by Qi Zhen; the moment he saw the girl, his eyes brightened, “I often hear my mother mention you, our national shooting beauty, and seeing is indeed better than hearing!”

Qi Zhen chuckled and shook hands with him graciously, “Likewise, Chen the Talented.”

The atmosphere was very harmonious, and both families exchanged pleasantries as they took their seats.

After some chatting, Lady Chen suddenly noticed another person beside Qi Wanli and looked at Qi Yue with a surprised and puzzled expression, “Who is this?”

Yu Shuhua hurriedly introduced her, “This is my eldest daughter, Qi Yue.”

Lady Chen paused to recall, “Oh, this is Yueyue. I remember she was frail as a child and grew up with her grandparents, right?”

Yu Shuhua replied, “Yes, after she got better, I brought her back home. She’s currently studying at University A!”

“Wow, University A, that’s impressive!” Lady Chen’s attitude immediately warmed up.

Yu Shuhua smiled and continued, “My Yueyue has always been doing well in her studies, never giving me any worries…”

“What major at University A?” Lady Chen asked casually.

Hearing this question, Yu Shuhua’s expression immediately stiffened.

Yu Shuhua remained silent, and Lady Chen looked somewhat skeptical, until Qi Wanli spoke up, “Yueyue is studying Agronomy.”

Upon hearing Qi Wanli’s answer, the expressions on the faces of Lady Chen, President Chen, and Chen Jing all showed surprise.

“Why choose that major? Was it because the score wasn’t high enough for the preferred choices? You can switch majors in sophomore year, can’t you? Why didn’t she switch?” Lady Chen asked curiously.

Qi Zhen spoke up, “My sister was the top science scholar in our province that year; she chose the major herself.”

Lady Chen’s expression became even more astonished, looking at Qi Yue not as if seeing a top student, but rather as if seeing a fool, “With those scores, couldn’t she have chosen any major?”

Such high scores would allow for any choice of major, but choosing such an unpopular one was probably hard for outsiders to understand.

Yu Shuhua’s expression was displeased, “Exactly, it would have been better to just score average; such high scores, yet she chose such a major…”

Qi Yue had long since grown accustomed to hearing such remarks; she just wanted to finish eating quickly and leave, so she kept her head down, eating, not eager to say another word.
